The Greeks, with few exceptions, had
no family Tor sire) names The Romans
had three names: 1. A proper name
prenomen), the distinction of the indi-
vidual, like our baptismal or Christian
name. 2. The name of the class (nomen).
3. The family name (cognomen). Some
times to these were added, OF account of
act of valor or event. a fourth nam
(agnomen), as Publius prenomen) Cor
nelius (the clan of Cornelius). Scipio (the
family, Africanus (the agnomen, because
of his victories in Africa). The prenomen
was generally not written in full, as NJ.
for Marcus, p. for Publius, etc. as M.
Tullius Cicero. e., Marcus" to dis
tinguish him from his brother, Quintius,
Tullius, the clan, and Cicero, the family.
In Germany and the Teutonic nations
family or a Tor, as it should be
spelled, ''sirnames''-i.e., sire or fathers
Nance were little USED before the Four
teenth century. Every one had q baptis-
NAL name only. The most ancient method
wa to add the fathers name to their
own, as johnson, Williamson, David
son, etc. The Arabians still follow this
custom-e. g., Halls son, Yoar is called
Ebu Hall Halls SOM and Yoar's son
would be Ebu Yoar.
The surnames given in England about
the time of William the Conquerer were
selected, like the agnomen of the Ro-
mans, from some peculiar circumstance
relating TO the individual. Thus the earl
of Anjou obtained the surname of Plan
tagenet from the well known story, and
his descendants were called P~lantagenets.
Fitz from the old French fills, meaning
''son'), Mac (Scottish), APP CWelsh), o.
Qrish), Ez (Spanish) and Ben were all
p~refixes meaning in those several Ian
guages "son." But Fitz meant illegiti-
mate son. The German sohn, Swedish
son Dutch son are the same. German
Won, Dutch van French de mean ''of'
or from, " referring to the residence or
descent. On the establishment of the
feudal system new names were intro
duced, derived either from occupation, as
Smith, Turner, Carpenter, Fuller, etc.
from place of nativity, as French, Welsh,
ETC., or from personal complexion or
other popularity, as White, Brown,
Black, Long, Short, Sweet, Smart, Coy,
Martin, Wren, etc.-Baltimore American.

Integrity of h PennsyIvania Dutch.

Integrity of the PennsyIyania Dutch.
The customs and manner of the Penn
sylvania Dutch may be best and most
briefly described as the never ending ac-
tual expression of honesty and good will
to all men. This in itself means rugged
simplicity, which we of a more refined
and less scrupulous motive condescend-
ingly esteem as ''queerness' and quaint
ness" Integrity, which logically com
pels plainness; industry, which never fails
of reward; simplicity of thought and
habit, which prolongs life; generosity,
which returns the noblest cheer; purity,
which yields positive physical and mental
benedictions, blended in a good and con-
tented whole, make the motive, means
and ultimate of the lives of these people.
Unceasing and sure their labor, certain
and constant its reward, and they seem
among the only men of earth absolutely
born without love of, and with perennial
contempt for, pomp and show. They
live honest lives, clothe the naked, feed
the hungry and succor the unfortunate
for the simple sake of right doing.
Along these lines it is thus not strange
that their plainness of dress is natural.
and all apparent eccentricities of this
sort are true, rather than untrue, to
right living. Equally the seemingly
strange custom to us of seldom, if ever,
resorting to law, and ever refusing to
defend unjust legal attack, is logical
ethical correctness of life as taught by
the Perfect One. The bond and mort
gage are almost unknown among them,
for these have no place among men
whose very lives are staked on their
simple word. And they had best be; for
while one neighbor can ask and get of
another any sum of money into the thou
sands at any time, to be returned, almost
invariably without interest, at any date
named, the day and the very hour
must see that money returned, or the
borrower is forever in disgrace among
his people. Nc after reparation can yield
retrievement. This, too, is a true So
quence of an integrity which must be
as unfalteringly just as unhesitatingly
generous.-Edgar L. Wakeman's Letter.

Talking about monuments, the one to
Peter Cooper recalls the fact that the in
stitute has been entirely rebuilt from roof
to foundation, except the shell, by re-
building parts at a time to preserve the
skeleton of the former structure in the
air while new flesh and blood were being
effected. The fact is thought to have
been a remarkable one. 1t cost $500, 900,
and with 5000, 900 more added to the en-,
dowment fund, represents the unheralded
liberality of the Cooper family-Edward
Cooper and Sarah Cooper Hewitt, the
wife of the mayor.-Brooklyn Eagle.

A HEALTHY TOWN.

The sections mortuary report for last
month shows the city is in an IN
usually healthy condition. The total
number of deaths for the thirty-one
days was but So, which cannot be con-
sidered as otherwise than remarkably
low in a city of 80, 900 inhabitants. If
one will also look over the list of the
causes of death he will discover but one
complaint named which indicates bad
sanitary condition. We refer to dip h.
liberia, and there were but three
deaths from that disease. A com
munity cannot be regarded IN
healthy when more of the inhabit-
ants die from old age than from
any otheA single cause, as was the
cause here last month, old age being
charged with deaths, the other 30
deaths being attributed to nineteen
causes, among which accidents,
apoplexy, lead poison, paralysis ard
premature birth, figure as carrying off
8. The people of Salt Lake may we'll
boast of the climate and invite COM
parsons with the mortality records of

THE SENATE.

OF all the men who have been chosen
United States Senators during the past
six weeks, it may be doubted that one
Of them would have been elected if the
people had bad the choosing. In New
York there is a Democratic majority,
yet two Republicans represent the State
in the Senate; the same is true of Con-
necticut, and perhaps of other States.
Then, the men made Senators by the
Legislatures are not the men who would
be chosen by the voters. Che Legisla-
tors are dazzled by the display of
wealth, or are bought outright,
while the people have neither confidence
in nor respect for money bags.
As al present constituted, and as it
must necessarily be made up until the
law has been changed, the Senate is
neither representative nor republican
bodya it is aristocratic in theory and is
fast degenerating into an association of
money bsgs without brains. OF the
seven,y-slx members. net score of
them mas legislative ability enough to
sit in the common council of fourth
rate city, and perhaps there is not =
dozen of them who would have been
thought of for the place had they been
ps0r men,,
Ever since there has been 2 Senate
there has hem a nOpulsr Drotss+ q, ,,;.,.
the manner of choosing the Senators:
that protest has grown louder with the
years, as the standard of ability, educa-
ton and intelligence has been degraded.

A HOMESTEAD BOUNCED.
Setting Up a Cattle Rancho Does
Not Comply With the Law.

A decision has just been forwarded
from Washington to the Land Office
here, which will prove OF interest tc
settlers. cattlemen and others. The
suit was that of Cheney VS.. Ducheneau
and involves Ducheneau's final home
stead entry for 100 acres of land on
Blue Creek, in Box Elder County
Utah. Mr.. Ducheneau made final
proof upon his homestead, and swore
to a continuous and actual residence
upon the land for over five years.
Cheney filed an affidavit of contest,
and the hearing was closed October
10th, 1885, at the Land Office in this
city, and was decided by the Register
and Receiver for the plaintiff. January
8'h, 1886, on the showing that
Ducheneau had merely held the place
as rancht and stock range, his i'm
Dr"v+ments consisting merely of the
clrrals stables, etc. From this decision,
DuCheneau appealed, and the Com
missioner sustained the Land Otfic :
decision, under a letter dated January
p, 1887 1t was shown that during the
five years which Ducheneau had
sworn he lived upon his homestead, he
had a home in Ogden and Corinne,
about thirty and sixty miles respec-
lively distant from his homestead
entry. The Commissioner saws: 1T
is manifest from the evidence that the
defendant never resided upon tue lane
and that his So called settlement, resi-
dence and improvements were merr
pretense with view 10 acquiring title
To the land under the color of the
homestead laws, while evading its
plainest requirements. The appeal Of
Ducheneau is dismissed. and final
entry held for cancellation"
